Here's another spread from my ongoing comic saga The Vigil. This one is pure relief print. It's something I call a papercut; it's like a woodcut but instead of carving the image on a wood block, its carved out of illustration board. It's much faster and easier than wood or lino cut and much cheaper, and you can get a middle gradient to print by tearing the paper instead of cutting and removing the top layer completely. Then I just ink it with a brayer, lay my print paper on it, and roll it with a huge rolling pin I made out of an old motorcycle fork tube.
